There’s bad news for anyone who bought a Longitude ticket specifically to go see Cardi B.
Cardi has pulled out of the sold-out festival, which takes place in July in Dublin’s Marlay Park.
The organisers shared the news on Twitter this afternoon.
Massive congratulations to Cardi B! ? @iamcardib
Unfortunately this means she won’t be performing at @longitudefest this year. However stay tuned for a big announcement coming soon! pic.twitter.com/SOk7NCXSSq

As one of the headliners, she leaves a big slot for organisers to fill with just three months to go but Longitude has said that there’s a “big announcement” to come.
After months of denials, the rapper announced her pregnancy on Saturday Night Live over the weekend.
Aye #BabyBardi is on the way! Congrats are in order to our sis @iamcardib ???

Performing single ‘Be Careful’, the singer didn’t speak about her baby news but rather had the camera pan out from her face, showing her stomach.
After her performance, Cardi was captured backstage at the show looking delighted to have made the news public, shouting “I’m finally free!”
Cardi is expecting the baby with Migos rapper Offset, whom she got engaged to last year.
After her performance, he tweeted to say that he and Cardi were looking forward to their “next chapter together.”
